  I apologize if this is a FAQ or already fixed, but I'm using emacs
19.22 on Solaris 2.3 and dired mode does not work for me if any of the
files in the directory have dates that include non-ascii iso chars.
Specifically I can mark files but then all commands (such as expunge) 
bail out with the message "no file on that line", the same goes for
commands such as visit, visit-in-other-window etc.
  I've a hunch that this has to do with the regexp that hunts out the
filename from the line, but being an emacs newbie this does not help me
any.
